Legends speak of a city that brings mystical beauty and new magic to whoever enters. Can you be the adventurer that finds Zanaris? Just remember, sometimes you have to look deeper. Otherwise, you won't see a thing!

Access to Zanaris and the right to wield the Dragon longsword and Dragon dagger.

Start Point:

Lumbridge Swamp, south of Lumbridge/Draynor forest.

To Start:

Speak to Adventurers.

Instructions:

Head to the forest south of Draynor until you find several characters gathered around a campfire. Several of them won't talk to you, however the Warrior will. Trick him into revealing why they are camping here and what they are looking for. He tell you to find the tree a leprechaun is hiding in.

Directly west of the camp are a bunch of trees. Look for a tree that has the option "chop tree" instead of "chop down tree". When you attempt to chop it a leprechaun called Shamus will flee out of it. Run after him and ask him how you can find Zanaris. He'll tell you that you need a Dramen staff to enter the city.

Prepare yourself at Draynor bank for the fight with a level 101 spirit with no armor or weapon. Bring good food, runes, or jewelry to teleport. You could also bring a ring of recoil, or ring of life for protection, and you can afford one you could also take an amulet of strength or amulet of fury.
You can also bring crafting materials to create leather armor or snelms. Other supplies depend on whether you will be using melee/magic/ranged.

Head to Port Sarim and right-click and select the quick travel option to get to Entrana (you will be searched when you click this still). They will only take you to Entrana if you have no weapons or armour with you.

Once on the Island go northeast to the bridge. Cross it and head west to the ladder. A Cave monk will warn you that once you go down the ladder, you can't go back up. The only exit will bring you to level 32 of the wilderness just north of the Boneyard.

Go down the ladder and kill zombies (level 25) until you get a Bronze axe, then continue following the dungeon.

Run past the Greater demons (lvl 92) into the room south of them. If you have a high combat level and plan on using melee on the spirit, you could kill Greater demons (level 92) to get better weapons and armor. When you attempt to cut down the Dramen tree a Tree spirit (level 101) will pop up, which you have to kill in order to cut branches from the tree.

Strategy:

Melee: Wield the bronze axe, drink a Prayer potion if needed and turn "Protection from Melee."

Ranged and Magic: There is one safe spot in the room in the middle of three mushrooms (the red square in the Step 8 image below).

Once you have killed the Tree spirit, chop the Draman tree to get a Dramen branch. Use a knife on the branch to make the "Dramen staff".

Note: You can make as many dramen staves as you want, so cut more logs if you want to have some placeholders/disposables.

Teleport out or head into the room with the Greater demons to use the Magic door that brings you to level 32 of the wilderness just north of the Boneyard.

Head to the small shack in Lumbridge swamps. Equip your Dramen Staff and enter the shack. You will be teleported to the city of Zanaris.
